With no regard to the ROM chip's cries? STAY AWAY FROM ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...oh, my precious Combats...no, we don't want that to happen, do we?...no, my preciouses...

All hail Colin Mochrie!! Well, I guess I've gotta learn how to use a soldering iron now..... And not waste all my money on games...

You should, from my experience, have: Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back Pitfall II Berzerk Midnight Magic Night Driver Frogs and Flies Reactor (I don't see why not) Solaris Maze Craze Dragonfire Air Raiders And the obligatory 5 copies of Combat, but you already knew that. Still lookin' for a 6th, though... Oh yeah, and any Text # cart you can find (Why oh why didn't I get that 41 Surround?)

2 questions for a begineer collector
TheHoboInYourRoom replied to oleanhosting's topic in Atari 2600
I love label variations. I currently have 4 Combats: Text # with red outline on the end label, Text, Picture, and Tele-Games Text (is there a picture label for that?) and I'm looking for a Text # with a silver end label outline (damn my inability to get that one off my mind!). I won't get variations that require a scanning electron microscope to see, though. Just buy the carts you want and nothing more. I currently have multiples for these games besides Combat: 2 Star Ships 3 Indy 500s 2 Air Sea Battles I don't have a huge collection (30 carts), but hey, all things take time and game collecting is really fun anyway. Yes, that stupid brain we have. -
Nice. I'd absolutely LOVE to have one of those babies. Unfortunately, the left port on my mom's old 4-switch is screwy and my dad and I have no idea how to fix or replace it. We have a 2600 Jr. coming our way, though, so hopefully I'll be able to play single-player games by the end of the week.

There are a lot of games I can't buy/play right now because CRAP!!! the stupid left controller port has broken loose and I can't get the controller plug to make contact . My purple monkey is just a baby right now.
-
I guess I'm lucky then. I started my collection just last week so I don't have collectionitis. Although the purple monkey does seem to have some sound advise. Fruit is good. Especially persimmons and pomegranates . Moral of the story: Don't listen to what the jealous cartridges say and play a nice game of Frogs and Flies. Especially with some pineapple .

*looks for nuclearboy* Is Mr. Youranus even here? Ah, whatever. It just sounds like some random bug in the game .

A little something I've been working on.
TheHoboInYourRoom replied to ddsilver's topic in Atari 2600
Very nice . I wonder what the card for Video Life would say... -
Shut up. Anyway, what should we tell our friend here? Does Youranus exist in the game or not?
-
Suurrrrre...... Why not try getting a picture of it if you're so sure?

Anyone else have a great day of thrifting today?
TheHoboInYourRoom replied to adams_ale's topic in Atari 2600
Yes it is. I got it off a site with a link to the movie Hyakugojyuuichi!!(very funny Flash movie ) Anyway, I think it's cool that I had gotten the Text # Combat on my first go to Game X Change(on the 7th). -

I don't go to flea markets. The nearest Game X Change has loads of Atari games(but no rare ones .) I got a few carts Friday, but they were really common ones since I only started my collection a week ago. But if you want to know what I got, they were: Frogs and Flies Maze Craze Boxing Ice Hockey(defective, so I replaced it with Air Sea Battle and a Combat picture label cart)
